Brannigan Posted August 9, 2012 This game needs to stop giving me nature's prophet items, i've never played him. Also pretty much all his items are fairly boring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sully907 Posted August 9, 2012 They need to stop making so many items for that jungling motherfucker that everybody hates and start making some items for heroes that have nothing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLastBaron Posted August 10, 2012 You could always try recycling them, I don't know what the chances of success are though (obviously super low), but worst case scenario you just delete all the items for a hero you don't play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brannigan Posted August 10, 2012 I usually trade them off to other people, except everyone ever has nature's prophet items Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bakka bakka bakka Posted August 10, 2012 I sure do love Undying with a hood and a vangaurd I really do feel unkillable. We've been running a lot of puck/undying to great effect. Dream Coil with a Tombstone in the middle and at the end everything is dead or running on a spot waiting to die. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sully907 Posted August 11, 2012 undying took me a few games to figure out, then I watched one of pudge's videos of him playing him in lane agressively, and now I realize how damn good he is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sully907 Posted August 11, 2012 Keeper might really challenge withdoctor for title of best support in my book. Doctor excells and assisting in ganks and team fights, but keepers speciality is definitely pushing, and he does it like a boss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted August 11, 2012 His specialty is stealing the fucking farm from the fucking carries. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bakka bakka bakka Posted August 11, 2012 I'm probably the only person that always wants Visage in his lane. Trips to the fountain for everything that comes close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Orv Posted August 11, 2012 You really should just abandon when anyone willingly picks Visage. They are trying to throw the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sully907 Posted August 12, 2012 Man I just had an epic 60 minute game. I was tinker, my first. "real" game with him, and I see what everyone is talking about. His pushing ability when he gets farmed up is absolutely absurd. Non stop teleports essentially. We lost the game, they scored 65-we scored 25, but we still killed two of their racks somehow. We were doing such a good job pushing towers and such a good job holding off in the desparation team fights that i was able to keep going with my boots of travel shenanigans. Sucks to lose when we almost had them, despite massive farm, but it felt good to realize tinker's true potential Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLastBaron Posted August 13, 2012 It's pronounced rax. "Racks" is pronounced rax. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Orv Posted August 14, 2012 Yes that was... nevermind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted August 14, 2012 No, "racks" is pronounced "rackes". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLastBaron Posted August 14, 2012 Oh, my bad we were dealing with plural. I assumed he was just shortening barracks to racks, which is correct, though an extra letter than rax. Yeah it would be racks' or raxes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted August 15, 2012 Oh god, no! I was just being stupid, man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Orv Posted August 15, 2012 The joke was that shortening barracks in an RTS setting is typically done as "rax", the pronunciation part was incidental. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sully907 Posted August 15, 2012 This game...just makes me mad sometimes. I have this amazing game as gyro, my team for the most part plays well also, we gank the natures prophet 3 or 4 times, we are winning like 45-25, and his bullshit farming hand of midas jungling crap still gets him super farmed and he single handedly wins the game for his team. wtf else are we supposed to do. He's such a bullshit hero Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bakka bakka bakka Posted August 15, 2012 If he was split pushing you should have been able to outright stop him with your aghanim's ult. You're not really going to shut NP down once he's got a Midas without giving a lot up to the rest of his team. Usually you're not going to lose to a carry Prophet without something else going horribly wrong for you. I know the feeling you have though. I was having a great game playing support Undying last night but our two biggest team fight heroes were absolutely useless. Sand King that went Blink Dagger to Satanic and never blinked anyway and a Leshrac that loved to put himself in perfectly gankable positions. Even then I still felt like we should have won but it wasn't to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brannigan Posted August 15, 2012 I really hate when people see me on huskar and just assume that's enough initiation for an entire team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted August 16, 2012 Haha what. Who thinks Huskar is an initiator? Oh man I feel sorry for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLastBaron Posted August 16, 2012 Haha what. Who thinks Huskar is an initiator? I guess Valve because they list him as one. Though, a lot of the roles they give heroes are questionable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
